(iii) General sequence for the PY-NLS is either a hydrophobic or basic motif at the N-terminus and a R-X2-5-P-Y motif at the C-terminus.

The <scene name='Sandbox_122/Kapb2_nls_blue_magenta/4'>PY-NLS of 2H4M</scene> contains a hydrophobic rather than a basic N- terminal motif. Hydrophobic interactions at the N- terminal motif of the PY- NLS include:  <scene name='Sandbox_122/Kapb2_nls_magenta_hydrophobics/1'>Phe273, Gly274, Pro275 and Met276 </scene>of the NLS with Trp730 and Ile773 of Kapβ2. Interactions at the C- terminal R-X2-5-P-Y motif of the NLS include: Arg284 of the NLS with Glu509 and Asp543 of Kapβ2; Pro288 and Tyr289 of the NLS with Ala380, Ala 381, Ala 384, Leu419, Ile457, Trp460 and Arg464 of Kapβ2.

Upon binding Kapβ2, the NLS gains structure, conforms to and makes contact with the internal surface of the Kapβ2 C-terminal arch.
